"Did work well for the numbers we had. Nine of us fitted into the cottage. I think the eclectic surroundings were a bit surprising, but on reflection not negative… just… surprising. Lots of little farm animals which was fun. Price for stay very good. I’d call this casual country. Owners/hosts very friendly. "
